The Real Estate Board of Metro Vancouver reports
"Home buyer activity returned to more typical summer levels in Metro Vancouver* in July, with sales 0.7% above the 10-year average for the month. Housing demand is inconsistent across the region right now, with pockets of the market still receiving multiple offers while others are not. This varying market-by-market demand is due to a combination of price, property type and location. With a normal summer slow down in buyer activity, we saw the selection of homes for sale in the region edge above 9,000 properties for the first time in 2017.
The key to success in any market is to be well prepared, and getting you ready for all market conditions is my top priority in 2017! If you are planning a change in lifestyle this fall, let's work together to make it happen. I look forward to working for you. Regards, Dodi 604.644.3634
